Parks and footpaths could grow. Islands of new public space could sprout.

Areas could be re-claimed by pedestrians, cyclists, artists, shop-keepers, residents, and those offering to hold events.

Special places could be discovered.

Life could be breathed into areas once dominated by traffic.

Streets could become the sites for fire festivals that would bring people and communities together, and grant those eager to be creative the space that has become so scarce in the modern car-dominated world.
